Tapni - Capture LinkedIn and Gmail Contacts

About

Tapni helps you capture contacts from LinkedIn and Gmail — directly into your Tapni address book. No more copy-pasting names, emails, or job titles. Just click "Add to Tapni" and move on.

Whether you're networking at events, prospecting on LinkedIn, or following up on emails, Tapni keeps all your contacts organized in one place — synced to the same app used by 100,000+ professionals worldwide.


🔗 LINKEDIN CONTACT CAPTURE

Visit any LinkedIn profile and you'll see an "Add to Tapni" button right next to the existing action buttons (Message, Connect, Follow). Click it, and Tapni automatically:

• Captures the person's name, headline, company, and profile URL
• Enriches the contact with available details
• Creates a new contact in your Tapni account instantly
• Sends you a push notification on your phone confirming the new contact

No tab switching. No manual data entry. No spreadsheets.

Works on every LinkedIn profile page — including the sticky navigation bar that appears when you scroll down. The button stays with you.


📧 GMAIL CONTACT CAPTURE

Tapni will also work inside Gmail. When you open an email, Tapni recognizes the sender and extracts contact details from their email signature — name, phone, company, title, social links. One click to save them as a Tapni contact.

Perfect for capturing contacts from:
• Cold outreach replies
• Meeting follow-ups
• Newsletter and event introductions
• Customer and partner emails


🔐 SECURE QR CODE LOGIN

No passwords to type. No tokens to copy. Sign in to the extension by scanning a QR code with the Tapni mobile app:
1. Open the extension popup
2. Open the Tapni app on your phone
3. Go to Settings → Link a Device
4. Scan the QR code — done

You're connected. The extension stays signed in until you disconnect.


📱 WHAT IS TAPNI?

Tapni is the modern way to share your contact info and grow your professional network.

With Tapni, you get:

• A digital business card that you can share via NFC tap, QR code, or link
• Smart NFC business cards, tags, and accessories (tapni.com/shop)
• A contact management system that tracks everyone you've connected with
• A business card scanner for paper cards — works offline and in bulk
• Analytics to see who viewed your profile and when
• Team management tools for companies — deploy branded cards across your org
• Custom domains, email signatures, and virtual backgrounds with your QR code

Tapni works without the recipient needing an app. When someone taps your card or scans your QR code, your profile opens in their browser — and they can save your info directly to their phone contacts.

Used by professionals and teams at companies across 80+ countries. No monthly fees to get started.

The extension only reads the profile information visible on the LinkedIn page you're viewing — the same info anyone visiting that profile can see. All data is sent securely to your Tapni account via encrypted API calls.

Required permissions:
• linkedin.com — to display the "Add to Tapni" button on profiles
• gmail.com — to display the "Add to Tapni" button on emails (coming soon)
• tapni.com — for QR code login authentication
• Storage — to remember your login session
• Active Tab — to read profile data from the current page
